Best-selling author, pastor and activist John Pavlovitz. John’s brand-new book is titled, Worth Fighting For: Finding Courage & Compassion When Cruelty is Trending.

John sees a poverty of empathy in our culture – and many churches, and explores the dire consequences of this condition as well as ways we can build back in both religious and secular settings.

In Worth Fighting For, John writes insightfully about ways we can begin to bridge the divides today’s deliberately confrontational discourse has created in our communities and even our families, how to deal with loss of faith, the mental health crisis sparked by public acceptance of untruths, and much more.
